Product Description

Sony’s Elevated Standard line of cassette decks provides awesome clarity and precision for your analog recordings. All Sony ES single-well decks feature a 3-head design - recording and playback functions are handled by separate heads, each optimized for its specific task. Another benefit of a 3-head design is “tape monitoring.” You can switch back and forth between listening to the signal at the record and playback heads, and tweak bias and level controls for the best possible recordings. All Sony ES 3-head decks also feature a ceramic cassette holder to fight resonance, plus Dolby B, C, and S noise reduction for exceptionally clean sound. Sony pulled out all the stops on their best single-well deck, the TC-KA3ES. LaserAmorphous record and playback heads suppress switching noise and help this gorgeous machine deliver pure, intensely musical sound to 22, 000 Hz! The Closed-Loop Dual Capstan System maintains tape-tension consistency, and the quartz-locked direct-drive capstan motor ensures rock-steady tape speed. Together, they reduce wow and flutter to an incredibly low .022%! Sony even installed sapphire main bearings to minimize efficiency-robbing rotational friction. Three-point record calibration (bias, level, and EQ) and an anti-resonant aluminum front panel round out this analog tour de force.
